Using a system of equations, it is found that there are 5 dimes and 9 quarters in his pocket.
<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>
A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.
In this problem, the variables are given as follows:
- Variable x: number of dimes in his pocket.
- Variable y: number of quarters in his pocket.
He has a total of 14 coins, hence:
x + y = 14 -> y = 14 - x.
They are worth $2.75, hence, considering the value of each coin(dimes $0.1 and quarters $0.25), we have that:
0.1x + 0.25y = 2.75
Since y = 14 - x:
0.1x + 0.25(14 - x) = 2.75
x = (0.25*14 - 2.75)/0.15.
x = 5.
y = 14 - x = 14 - 5 = 9.
There are 5 dimes and 9 quarters in his pocket.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First factor the second binomial
38^9 - 38^8 = 38^9 (38 - 1 ) = 38^9(37)
So there's your 37. This whole expression is divisible by 37
Now do the first binomial
36^5 - (36^4)*6
36^4(36 - 6)
36^4(30) and there's your thirty.
That first term is going to cause a bit of trouble showing that 36^4 * 6 = 6^9
6(36^4) = 6(6^2)^4 = 6^1 * 6^8 = 6^9
So this factors into 30*(36^4)*37*38^9
Answer:
$100.80
Step-by-step explanation:
40%/100%×72=$28.80
$72+$28.80=$100.80
